Customer Feedback:
O’Grady Plumbing
“I am a technician for SBC, and I noticed the quality of their work in a home I was running wiring in. I had them install a water heater for me, and take care of various plumbing. I referred them to my daughter. That speaks volumes. I really believe in the quality of their service.”

Customer Feedback:
David Zaidman Painting
“I have used him on my own home, and being that I’m also a realtor, I’ve used him on my clients’ homes as well. He does very good work, is easy to work with, and very flexible. He’s always there when he says he’s going to be there. What I like most about his work is that he’s always clean— he doesn’t leave a mess behind. He does good work.”
